Mom Decorates with Train, Planes and Truck!

Another very happy Olive Kids customer!

This is what Carol had to say about decorating her son's room with Olive Kids Trains, Planes and Truck design!

After 3 years of French toile and nursery pastels, my son was ready for a big-kid room. The trains, planes, and trucks theme was an obvious choice as my son loves anything with wheels, especially tractors. Olive Kids provided me with the essentials to design a creative and personal room that was afforable--and one my son would love. The fun, energizing color scheme inspired me to paint an interactive landscape mural. I used magnetic paint to create "roads" on the walls, where Olive Kids wallies mingle with vehicle magnets, and my son can create his own traffic patterns. I was able to keep nursery remnants, like the rocking chair--giving it a facelift with an Olive Kids quilt and updating the old lampshade with a new coordinating fabric.

Thanks for providing an affordable and attractive alternative to mass-marketed tv characters. My son loves his new room!

I wish I had just a little bit of her talent, look at how she complimented our design with her custom painted murals!

Beautiful!

Baby Let's Shop - Shops at Olive Kids

Olive Kids is a fabulous option if you are looking for a one stop shop for decorating your kids room.
They have many fun and kid friendly themes. Blankets, sheets, clocks, pillows, lamps and rugs are just a few of the products they carry.



We have their Transportation Raschel Fleece Throw and it's a great quality blanket. While much too big for baby L's little toddler bed we just love it's generous size. We do keep it in baby L's bed and fold it in half for the rare occasion that we make his bed. It's nice for his bed because I often find myself squeezed into L's tiny bed trying to comfort him to sleep and it's nice to be able to cozy up under a blanket with him that fits me too. Baby L hates being covered to sleep and this blanket bundled up at the bottom of his bed helps prevent him from falling out but is still within his reach if he does decide he wants a cover.

After quite a few trips through both the washer and dryer this blanket is still soft and fluffy, the colors have not faded nor has the blanket started to pill, it looks as great as it did the day it arrived. I love the idea of being able to pick a theme, pick the pieces you need (ex bedding, decor etc) order and your done, all that's left is the wait.

Olive Kids Raschel Fleece Throw retails for $24.99 US, other products range in price and can be purchased from their online US based store, they ship to both the US and Canada.

Busy Mommy Products review

Stacy not only runs this blog to show Mom's what is available for their kids she also makes the most adorable tutus and sells them at her etsy store. She like Olive Kids is trying to get the word out about a mom run business (although Olive Kids is actually a Mom and Dad run business) we worked together to promote each others work. This is what she has to say about Olive Kids.

I am sure that you have seen other reviews of Olive Kids. I know that I had. Olive Kids was actually the inspiration for me to try to get the word out about my tutus through mom review blogs.

So of course I was super excited about the idea that I was going to get to review one of their items. I was sent 4 Flowerland Butterfly Knob. They are super cute!

From the website:

"This ceramic butterfly drawer knob matches our colorful Flowerland kids bedding line. Makes for a fast, easy and inexpensive way to "fun up" your child`s room. Comes in a set of two.

One and one half inch diameter drawer knob. Comes with a one inch screw that fits most drawers."

It was super easy to install and they are so very cute!

The inspiration behind Olive Kids was simple. Anita and Russell were looking for cute, coordinated, affordable bedding for their kids, that were not tied to a TV show or movie. They couldn't find them anywhere, so they created Olive Kids. How cool is that?

When you go to the website, you will find affordable, fun and colorful kids bedding and coordinating room decor.

Don't you think this pink and white tutu would go perfect with our tea party collection?

Mammalicious Finds - what a great name

The theme of their blog is "Two Mammas bringing you fun, fashionable & funky finds for your family! Olive Kids must of fit the bill for them because this is what they had to say about us.


Olive Kids is a wonderland of kids bedding and room decor. Everything from clocks to placemats to infant bedding. They have really cool themes like, pirates, outer space, mermaids dinosaurs, wild animals and cowboys- yeehaw!

Not only do they carry toddler AND twin sets, but you'll also find full and queen sets! I discovered a few unique items I've never seen before. The personalized floor pillow (pictured below) for those little ones who like to chill on the floor while watching their favorite movie. Comfy!

You need to check out their "Hugger" Comforters. "Hugger comforters are sewn at the foot and tailored to fit the mattress. The corners at the foot of the comforter wrap around so that the Hugger "hugs" the mattress. This easy to use, innovative design makes bunk beds, beds with footboards, and daybeds a breeze to make! " What a fabulous idea and saves time!

For all the sewers out there Olive Kids even offers coordinating fabric by the yard to create special items such as curtains or table skirts.

Olive Kids give-away

Olive Kids sponsored a contest at the-giveaway.com! Katie Lyons who is the owner of this site was such a pleasure to work with and this is what she had to say about us!

If you are a parent and you haven't heard of Olive Kids yet, you definitely need to go check them out. Talk about your one stop shopping for your kid! They have a bunch of cute designs, from robots, to mermaids, to pirates, to butterflies, etc. etc., you'll have no problem finding something to suit the little tyke in your life. And once you find the design you like, they have about a million products for you to get it on! (Okay, maybe not a million....but a lot) You can completely coordinate your child's room, their bedding, rug, pillows, wall art, clock, even the knobs on their dresser! Plus, they will get to take their favorite design out of their room as well. They can get their own placemat, magnets, even shower curtains! Almost makes me want to be a kid again so Calvin's not the only one having all the fun! :)



I mean, he got his own Personalized Pack and all of the designs are so bright and fun, I love them! I had to get the placemat in the Pirates design because it looks like a treasure map and I know I would have had a blast with that when I was younger. And how cool is that robot? As soon as I saw that robot nametag, I knew Calvin had to have it. And though he may not be able to use any of these yet (except for his awesome-o dinosaur clock), I know he's going to love them in the future. What little boy wouldn't? And in the meantime, I get to use the bookmark (I can't help it, it's so fun, and very sturdy, way better than my paper bookmark I was using before), and I just might be tempted to use that placemat sometime....I deserve to have fun too you know! ;) Oh and one other thing I wanted to mention to you mommas, they are all really great quality; sturdy as well as being very professionally printed. So no worries there.

Like I said, if you're a parent, you need to go check out Olive Kids ASAP, especially since the holidays are coming and I can think of more than a few kids that would be very excited to get some of the cool stuff they have at Olive Kids!

She had 365 people enter the contest! The lucky winner received their very own personalized pack of Olive Kids products.

Here's what Momma in Flips Flops has to say about OK?

You won't get bored looking through their site and I know there will be many things you will want to add to your list. Read all about Olive Kids by clicking here.


I as well as my kids were thrilled to review their personalized placemats and bookmarks. It was so fun just to pick out the design that each of them wanted and then to get them in the mail and use them daily is even more fun. The placemats are definitely a great thing to add to meal time, helping keep the messes cleaned up and they are made in such a way that the corners haven't curled up and still look as good as the day we got them. The bookmarks are fun and used a lot here. My son even at age 3 knows what they're for and loves to add it to his book if we have to take breaks while reading. Personalized items are always lots of fun!

Get your hands on something fabulous from Olive Kids for the holidays, I know the bedding would be an exceptional gift and all the accesories that go along with it. =)

The Angel Forever - forever loves Olive Kids

A little while ago Mommy Cracked had a really neat giveaway for some fabulous Olive Kids merchandise. Like I do from time to time, I entered a comment for a chance to win. It seemed like the perfect opportunity to finally get to see Olive Kids personalized items in my own house.

I have been in love with Olive Kids items for years now. I have drooled at their amazing bedroom sets with endless matching accessories (even for boys). I have thought about getting my boys and relatives some of the personalized products that they offer. Now thanks to seeing the items, I know this is something I will buy for people this holiday season.

Thanks to being a random winner of the giveaway I was allowed to pick out three personalized items. I had my choice of a placemat, name tag, and book mark. NHL selected our items. For the placemat we ordered the Out of This World one with our last name on it for everyone to be able to use. Next up NHL wanted the Robots name tag for his back pack. Last but not least we it was time for a very important item. As a new reader of chapter books, NHL takes his book marks seriously. He finally opted for the Pirates book mark.



I sent my selections to Kim at Olive Kids on a Thursday evening. The package with the items seen below arrived Saturday morning. Talk about your fast shipment and processing of personalized items!

Thank you again to Mommy Cracked and Olive kids for the great giveaway and fabulous goodies. . . we love them!

Working Moms Love Olive Kids Drawer Knobs

Working Momma 24 said

I recently received the Olive Kids drawer knobs to check out. I was really excited to get them, as Gameboy's drawer knobs were getting loose and one was completely gone.



I was really impressed with the hand painted quality of these knobs. The knobs are made of a heavy duty ceramic, these aren't your cheapie knobs. These knobs are made to last. This is the set I got and just love. I hope to add to the theme soon."

Olive Kids not only has drawer knobs, they have a huge selection of children's bedroom accessories. They just about have any kind of kid theme you could think of and I don't mean commercialized themes. The "non-commercialization" is what I love about Olive Kids, along with the quality workmanship. I could browse their site for hours. They are constantly adding new items and have a wide price range depending on what your looking for.
Check out Olive Kids to find the perfect something to add that special touch to any kid's bedroom.

Boutique Cafe Dishes About Olive Kids

“Olive” our new bedding from Olive Kids!

You’re probably learning more about me from my Daily Dish reviews than you’d like to but it can’t be helped. At Boutique Cafe we pride ourselves on our honest product reviews and with honesty comes personal information. Here’s another tidbit about me you can add to your file: I’m not big on character clothing or accessories. Though I caved on my toddler son’s Thomas backpack, you won’t find TV or movie characters anywhere else besides his underwear. Perhaps that’s why I love Olive Kids line of bedding and room decor.

Olive Kids was created to offer parents like me “an affordable alternative to the character based entertainment licenses.” The company believes kids’ rooms should inspire creativity and play and not serve as an advertisement for a TV show or movie. I couldn’t agree more! Though my baby girl isn’t old enough to realize it, she is now the proud owner of Olive Kids’ Tea Party bedding set. My mom was in town when I opened the box and she and I could not stop oohing and aahing over every single piece. From the darling super soft sheets to the sweet polka-dot and stripe comforter to the pretty pink sham with its plush-to-the-touch teapot, the set is perfect for little girls without being over-the-top girly (something else I’m not big on). The icing on the cake (pun totally intended) is the accent pillow with its yummy cupcake complete with sprinkles.



If you have a little one who’s more transportation than tea party, he’ll love Olive Kids’ Trains, Planes and Trucks or Heroes bedding sets. But these sets aren’t just fun for kids. Parents will notice the attention to detail: comforters have outline quilting; shams have embroidery and soft plush; and cotton sheets have attached ribbon details. Did I mention you can get all of these things at a fraction of the cost for something similar from PBK (a.k.a. Pottery Barn Kids)?

If you already have your toddler’s or kid’s bedding you’ll want to check out Olive Kids’ great room decor. My top three picks are the floor pillows (and you can get these personalized!), canvas growth charts (also personalized), and peel & stick chalkboards. Plan to spend lots of time on their site–you’ll find lots to love at Olive Kids! –Emily

Grandmother love Olive Kids

This is what Moomettesgram Musing had to say about Olive Kids

As a Baby Boomer Gram, I always seem to have an opinion on everything. One of the things I enjoy most is grabbing a cup of coffee on the way to and from my office commute. It never fails to amaze me how many clerks at the coffee shop can’t seem to make change without the help of the computer cash register.

Likewise, many young children today are so digitally connected, that something as elementary as telling time by looking at a clock with hands ~ the old fashion way ~ simply stumps them.

I’m delighted to have the opportunity to review a quality product from Olive Kids.

‘Lil Moomette, my 2 year old granddaughter, loves to be held up by her Grandpa to our pendulum clock in the living room, and hear it go “tic toc.”

I received a beautiful Blossoms And Butterflies Personalized Clock with her name on it. The clock face is a light pink with a pretty pink flower arrangement in a purple pot. The personalized name is centered around the base of the pot. Butterflies replace numbers 12, 3, 6, and 9. The clock measures 12 in. across, and uses one AA battery (not included). There’s even coordinating bedding available to match!



Something as simple as a clock with moving hands can truly help even a toddler get a head-start on number recognition, sequencing, identification and counting skills, prior to Pre-School.

If you’re a mom who home schools your children or a Grandparent, Aunt or family friend looking for a unique gift ~ Olive Kids has it all.

Olive Kids is a delightful online shopping experience offering just about anything for kids that you can imagine ~ kids bedding; infant bedding; personalized clocks; rugs; wall art; plush & floor pillows; growth charts & more!

Best of all, Olive Kids has received many Mom-Tested and Mom-Site Awards.

The Blossoms and Butterflies Personalized Clock is definitely a winner. Many other styles for both Girls and Boys are available. Visit at http://olivekids.com

It features cowboys and horses (of course) but it also has campfires, cactus and covered wagons, just like the old west!
